My home town is Gostyń. It lies on the west of Poland, not far from Poznań. The town was founded in 13th century, but at the beginning it was a village. Even today, Gostyń resembles a village in some places. In this town there live about 15 000 people. It is situated in the agricultural area of Poland. It is a very nice and clean town. People living there are kind to each other. Most of your neighbors know each other. There is always someone to talk to and when you go on holidays, the neighbors may keep an eye on your house or apartment. Another advantage of living in Gostyń is that it is only 40 kilometers apart from Poznań. One can easily get to that city by bus or train. Moreover, there are also lakes near Gostyń, so during summer one can go there and enjoy free time and natural environment. Gostyń is my home town and I really like it. I think I will spend my life there.
